Admissions and Enrollment Process

2) Interviewing & Testing

Following your application submittal, you will be contacted by our admissions team to schedule a testing and interviewing time with one of our principals or administrators, depending on the age(s) of your children. Both parents (if applicable) and student(s) are required to attend the interview. Please submit the following items via email or fax at least 24-hours prior to your scheduled interview:

1. A copy of student’s birth certificate
2. A copy of your child’s immunization record
3. A copy of most recent report card and/or transcripts
4. Previous standardized test scores (if applicable)

Our testing process involves two standardized assessments; one in math and one in reading. We want every child to be successful at LCS. These tests allow us to make sure we have the right fit and placement for the student. It also gives our faculty a head start on teaching your child, as the tests provide valuable insights in regard to their strengths and weaknesses.

3) Acceptance Notification

After steps 1-3 are completed, you will receive a timely notification regarding the acceptance of your child to LCS.

4) Enroll your child. Go to RenWeb to begin the re-enrollment or enrollment process.

After formal acceptance, you will receive a login and password to begin the enrollment process in RenWeb. This is a paperless process. If you are without Internet, please come to the Central Office and we will assist you. For new families, you will be asked to create an account in RenWeb. For current families, please use your RenWeb login and begin the process. Most of the required information on current LCS students will be preloaded and you will be asked to review and make necessary changes. Link to RenWeb Login

Open Enrollment for new families begins each year on March 1 for the following school year.  We encourage you to enroll as early as possible since it impacts our ability to plan and budget for the coming year. If space is available, immediate enrollment for the current school year is possible.

5) Fill out FACTS Need-Based Aid Application (Optional)

More than 70% of our families receive need-based aid and/or discounts. All need-based or merit-based aid applications must be submitted within the first two weeks of a student’s first day of school. PLEASE NOTE that financial assistance funds are not unlimited and they are allocated on a first come, first served basis. We encourage families to apply as early as possible this year to insure funds are reserved. Once you have your tax returns completed, you will have all the information required for the application. To learn more about the need-based aid process, please contact our admissions department.
